The National Rose Society of Australia is comprised of five State Rose Societies. It
is the practice for each State of Australia to provide the President of the National Rose
Society of Australia in succession on an annual basis.
We request that any correspondence be directed to the Honorary Secretary, who will
distribute it promptly to our five State organizations.
Each State Society conducts an annual Spring Rose Show and an Autumn Rose
Show. Owing to the very wide differences in the climates of our States, the timetables for
these events vary as follows:
Spring Shows Queensland early October
New South Wales mid to late October
Victoria early November
South Australia October
Western Australia October
Autumn Shows Queensland May
New South Wales March and April
Victoria April
South Australia April
Western Australia April
There are many gardens in Australia. Some are open from Spring to Autumn. Others
open very rarely, and a number are by appointment only. Please contact the National
Secretary for lists of Gardens and Nurseries and their open dates.
